Perthect Weather!
It’s good to be out of Singapore, and finally on to what I’m sure will be a much more exciting country. Australia! Oi! Oi! Oi!
There’s our trusty steed that took us to the land down under…
…under the freezing skys high above.
To the land where kangaroos roam the plains (er, sidewalks).
It’s amazing how similar the west coast of Australia is to the west coast of the United States. The weather…
…the foliage…
…the skylines.
It all feels so much like home. The only difference is the latitude & longitude.
Perhaps it also feels so much like home because of the strong connection between Western Australia and Holland. This memorial commemorates the voyage of a Willem de Vlaminghand who mapped the western coast of AU in 1697. It’s a unique dual-time piece that simultaneously tells the time in Perth and Amsterdam.
